    How Can I Run A 16bit Application On My 64bit?

    I used FASM for Ubuntu to code a file, the same way I did on Windows. Although my Windows 7 and Ubuntu computers are both the same, and both 64bit. So for my Windows 7 I had to download DOSBOX to run the files, but there is no DOSBOX version for Ubuntu.

    And I really want to be able to run my codes. :/

    Any suggestions? I'm actually pretty recent to learning Assembly.

    install FreeDOS after first formatting a partition to FAT16 using fdisk, then dual-boot.
